"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
On the first day of the Holy Egyptian Alliance's siege of the city of Hebron.
At this time, a messenger rushed into the tent of the leaders of the Holy Egyptian Alliance.
He almost stumbled into the tent, breathing heavily.
Apparently, he had news of great importance and urgency.
"Rear... urgent report from the rear!"
In the tent, Lin Ke was discussing strategy with several alliance leaders.
The leader of the Masun tribe, Marasia, was originally explaining her method of siege to Lin Ke. After hearing the words of the messenger, she immediately straightened up and fixed her eyes on the messenger.
Everyone in the Holy Egyptian Alliance turned their eyes over at this time.
After all, what the messenger was talking about was "the rear".
The Holy Egyptian Alliance's current logistical routes are very important.
Because the main responsibility of logistics now is to transport water to the troops on the front line.
When Lin Ke heard the news, he just stood up calmly and slowly looked at the other party.
"Don't be impatient, take your time."
The messenger knelt on one knee and reported immediately.
“The pollution around Philistine City is getting worse!”
"The number of contaminated people is increasing dramatically, and...they, they have changed!"
Marasia frowned and just told the other person.
"Speak slowly and make your words clear."
"What has changed?"
The messenger swallowed his saliva, his expression twisted for a moment, as if the swallowing action made him feel a little painful.
"Yes, clan leader."
"Those infected people no longer attack blindly like before!"
"Just last night, they ambushed our water transport team. Obviously, it was a premeditated ambush!"
"This is completely different from the previous contaminated people!"
"It's like they suddenly gained wisdom! It's like... it's like someone is directing them!"
"The people of Philistia have organized themselves into a team, and we have also increased the number of soldiers for protection."
"But after all, the enemy is a 'demon-like' monster. Ordinary soldiers are no match for them."
"If the battle line gets longer and longer, I'm afraid the safety of the logistics and transportation teams will be difficult to guarantee!"
Montezuma's mouth opened slightly, and the feather ornament on his head shook noticeably.
“This is impossible!”
"Those monsters couldn't even recognize the simplest traps before!"
"They are like wild beasts, they only know how to launch swift and unsystematic attacks."
"How is it possible that they suddenly become a well-trained army?"
After hearing what Montezuma said, the messenger simply repeated what he had just said.
"It is absolutely true, my Lord!"
"According to the soldiers, the contaminated people hid on both sides of the ruins and waited until the convoy completely entered the canyon before launching the attack."
"What's even more terrifying is... they almost ended the battle quickly this time. They just killed half of the soldiers and completely destroyed the supply vehicles before leaving!"
"We haven't found any trace of them yet."
Maracia and Montezuma exchanged a shocked look.
When Lin Ke heard this, there was no change on his expression.
Of course, he had already learned this information in the civilization panel.
However, he still wanted to know some more detailed information so that he could get more clues.
"Tell me more about it."
When the messenger heard the Holy Pharaoh speak, he simply bowed and then said quickly: "According to the soldiers' description, the polluters pushed huge rocks down from the canyon to block the team's route."
"They even knew to prioritize attacking the archers in the escort and the officers in charge of commanding the battle."
"Once the powerful soldiers and the commander in charge of the battle died, the logistical supplies could no longer be protected, so they were destroyed immediately."
As soon as he said this, there was a dead silence in the tent.
Obviously, this happened beyond everyone's expectations.
They originally thought that although those contaminated people were dangerous, they would not pose a great threat.
But the situation now is completely different.
After all, the Holy Egyptian Alliance is where the elites of all kingdoms reside.
It was indeed too difficult for the soldiers in charge of transportation to deal with the infected.
The gap in combat effectiveness is too great.
Malacia clenched her fists lightly and then spoke.
"Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
"This is completely different from what we encountered before. The last time we encountered a polluter, it could only bite like a wild beast."
The messenger seemed to have remembered something and added, "That's right, clan leader. Even more bizarre is the physical deformation!"
"Soldiers report that some of the Defilers have grown extra limbs!"
"Those limbs did not grow randomly, but were structures that evolved specifically for combat."
"They have infected people who specialize in pushing boulders. Those infected people move slowly, but they are extremely powerful!"
Malacia heard this and immediately added.
"That's right, Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh! There must be some kind of power guiding them from behind!"
"Otherwise, how could such a thing happen by such a coincidence?"
Lin Ke just nodded slowly, his expression still as calm.
"Yes, the attack on the water transport team was no coincidence. They were cutting off our supply lines."
